Above the Bold Coast

With its expansive wings fully extended, this eagle is soaring on thermals created by the warming rocks below. Eagles can spot small fish from this height and effortlessly swoop down to grab them with their sharp talons. Populations have fortunately rebounded enough for them to be removed from the “Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife” thanks to strict conservation efforts. They are now a common sight along much of the bold coast of Maine.
